View Full Version : Greyi about to POP!!! Slipperhead April 5th, 2005, 01:26 PM This first-bloom Greyi is about to do it's thing! I'll keep you posted! It looks like fairly dark spots/stripes on the dorsal! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/Slipperhead/Greyiabouttoopen.jpg Paphraguy April 8th, 2005, 12:10 PM Looks cute! Do post another one when it is in bloom! Park Bear April 8th, 2005, 02:36 PM not a really long spike? RickL April 8th, 2005, 05:00 PM It must have a bunch of bellatulum in it. Paphgirl April 8th, 2005, 05:02 PM What a cutie! Can't wait to see it fully open! Anonymous April 8th, 2005, 06:32 PM Paph niveum (pollen) X Paph godefroyae = Paph Greyi 1888 My only "complex" is one of these crossed with a Magic Lantern...should be very interesting. Looking forward to the "final" pic SH! paphreek April 9th, 2005, 12:35 AM Can't wait to see the flower fully opened. Brachy's are my favorite Paphs, for now, anyway. Slipperhead April 9th, 2005, 07:46 AM Well, here it is! I can't say I'm excited about the first blooming but I'm sure the second and third surely will be better. On the left side of the pouch you can see a small smear of what looks like pizza sauce and also a small projection. I don't know what the heck either of them are! The pizza sauce does not rub off and it is not rot. Anyway, here it is! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/Slipperhead/Greyi.jpg Here it is in a 3" pot. WAY overpotted IMHO. I can't imagine the root system being THAT extensive! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v639/Slipperhead/Greyiinpot.jpg Anonymous April 9th, 2005, 07:51 AM Hmm...maybe I can try feeding my Paphs pizza! Paphgirl April 9th, 2005, 08:15 AM Poor thing just has a little blemish...still nice though! :therethere: bhams April 9th, 2005, 09:25 AM :therethere: One of the most wonderful things about paphs opening for the first time is the true exicitment of something new emerging - they are not clones so they are all different --enjoy - :Party: :Party: billie Park Bear April 9th, 2005, 04:43 PM well it is young so maybe it just has acne and it will go away when it is older :poke: Wendy April 9th, 2005, 09:24 PM Pretty nice for a first time blooming. It's talented as well if you taught it to eat pizza...just give it a bib next time. :wink: Congratulations on a great flower. :clap: Milda April 10th, 2005, 05:52 AM It's BEAUTIFUL - with or without pizza sauce :clap: I think I can get room for one of those :wink: Milda paphreek April 10th, 2005, 08:08 AM It's a nice flower, well worth reblooming a second time. I'm sure that the 'blemish' on the pouch won't be there next time. |
